"According to the WHO 80% of their epidemiological data on microwave
transmitters show illnesses ranging from microwave sickness to a
fourfold increase in cancers." ( B. Trower, Scientific Advisor
Radiation Research Trust and H.E.S.E, Oct 2006,
http://www.hese-project.org/hese-uk/en/main/index.php)
Crystal Palace is a residential area in south London. It's also the
highest point, explaining why so many transmitters and masts have been
placed there over the past 20 years. Amazingly - and worryingly -
no-one knows the extent of local radiation - how much or what type.
This project aims to find out!
WHAT
This is a collaborative arts project, taking place as part of the 'Day
of Intimacy' event, which is within the Crystal Palace Artists annual
'Signals' Art Festival (http://www.myspace.com/signalsinlondon)
Dave Miller (http://davemiller.manme.org.uk) will host two exploratory
walks around Crystal Palace, measuring the radiation levels. The story
of each mast will be told, along with technical data and known medical
effects. Participants will be encouraged to measure radiation levels
and draw on maps, to contribute to a collaborative artwork - a poster
sized map of local radiation. The intention is to print and sell these
locally (with all funds going towards research into mobile radiation
effects).
The aim of this project is to:
1. Map the overall radiation picture for the central Crystal Palace area
2. Measure levels around the masts, and near schools
3. Identify which types of radiation are being emitted
WHY
Why 'Intimacy'? Because the radiation touches all of us, even though
we don't feel or see it. But for this event, we can hear it.
WHO
Everyone is invited. The more the merrier! Local people will be
targeted through local publicity - handouts etc.
WHEN & WHERE
